Book Club

Join us for Brain Injury Book Club in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Take part in person or connect virtually. Attend when you are able and when the chosen book interests you! This book club is especially for:

Survivors: Great way to build up social skills, meet new people, and learn something new in the process. You may also find reading can help increase your attention in other areas.

Participants will read 25-30 pages weekly before attending book club and then during book club engage in word work, word games, socialization, snacks, etc. This will be done with the support of a Certified Brain Injury Specialist and volunteer students in the fields of social work, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and physical therapy. Paperbacks with the text will be available to all participants.

Caregivers: Opportunity to meet others caring for a survivor of brain injury or enjoy some time to yourself!
